Tinsley Traction Maintenance Depot

The locomotive maintenance depot at Tinsley, Sheffield opened as recently as 1965 but had closed by 1998. A private client, who once worked at the depot is building a huge 1 : 76 scale model of the depot and adjacent marshalling yard in his attic. My commission was to build a  model of the shed and it's periferal buildings and structures.
These photographs show the buildings in situ whilst work is in progress around them.  The models are highly detailed and finished to give a weathered appearance.
This post will be updated as the project takes shape.
